how exactly do you connect the pannels so my rabbit doesn't get out again?..i'm about to go to zip-ties...

We used pliers to open the clasps, connected the panels and then closed the clasps securely w/ the pliers again. To reinforce we then used the stakes to secure the pen into the area that we placed it in. That was one of the negatives I felt to this pen, but once we did that we have had no issues w/ our rabbit getting out. Good luck....

How did the rabbit get out? Did it go over the top of the cage, between the panels, or underneath the panels?

Do you have the stakes in that came with the cage? I used those and didn't have any problems with my rabbit getting out.

I had the same problem with my rabbit; I ended up ordering stainless steel bowls from Amazon which hook onto the cage. I use one for food and one for treats; this is working out great! It's been a year now and I'm very happy with the outcome :)) TRY THIS! You won't be sorry....

Our banister has posts on either end, so we just zip-tied the ends of the plastic to the post in lieu of holes in the wall. Works great! You could probably get away with zip-tying the closet post to the wall (if you don't have/I can't fit a zip tie around end post), provided it's close enough to the wall that a kid couldn't push through (difficult feat). Advise using zip ties that match post color: dark or brown of clear on brown, for example ties vs white on brown-blends in better. Also, fasten zip ties on the side the child won't be on to avoid sharp edges left when zip ties are trimmed at the end.

I would contact the company they are easy to get ahold of and responsive. Depending on the crate it would seem easy enough to do with zip ties...I have mine set up as long dog runs for my poms in the house with bed - grass area and feeding area. The other one is set up as a play area as they are babies - and they stay safe when I'm not watching.

I haven't had my bungees come out of the loops, but i would try making two small holes in the webbing strap and putting a zip tie through the holes (around the bungee) and tightening the zip tie. you could do this without the holes as well.

Depends on what animal? Look on Pinterest at "bunny condos" and these have done well as enclosures for bunnies, many websites recommend them. Though with zip ties as well.

They say to put a cover over the trap. I'd put wooden box with rocks on it to over the traps to keep cat away. I'd also tie it in such a way that the cat couldn't take the trap & gopher away. I had wonderful luck with mine and I do use two and to me two is the ONLY way to go as using just one is a total waste as your guess which way the gopher is coming from. If you have activity I'd check every half hour and not just leave it. It happened fast for me like 15 minutes LOL Best of luck and I hope this helps.

I used plastic zip ties. You can thread the ties through the webbing and around the base structure. It cost me $3 to connect 5 separate pieces and I just cut them apart to store them in the winter.

Hi, no he climbs them alot and goes across them hanging by his little front paws like he's on monkey bars but never tries to escape. He can't even if he tried cuz the bars are to close together. The only way he could get out is if I left the door open by accident. Also like the last person said. I did when I put the cage together use small black plastic pull ties and pull the sides together real tight then cut the ends off and they hardly show but it made the cage that much more safe for my critters. Have a great day.

You can put the cover up and it zips all around. The only way they would get out is if they would claw holes in the netting. What I did with my dog is first I would push him around in the house(the wheels were new and clean)Then I took him for short rides around outside. Now that he is use to it I take him for long walks in the park. He is only 4 lbs and I do not want to let him walk too far.

There are two doors one is above the other in the front of the cage. Don't know much about rabbits but I would say they may need a ramp to get into the cage.

Sorry Adam , this house has a ramp and an exit for the house to the coop area. It is as you see, if your breeding rabbits the babies roll out of the top down to the bottom, so use a box to hold them in the top. Hope this helps, good luck, Traci oh p.s. I framed in the bottom with wire and put it on wheels made it stronger and easy to roll out and clean.. FYI love this little house.

I have released out both ends. I find turn in the cage away from me then opens in the main trapdoor is eassist. It also keeps the solid door between your hand and the creature. Otherwise pull the pin on the back side and slide it out the back side then can open when pressed out.

it's not the kind of hutch or cage that has a come and go area for the bunny to leave out of it you would have to actually pick the bunny up out of it the top is the only place that opens I hope this helps you other than that it's a really nice indoor rabbit hutch / condominium

There are two doors. One bottom center and one top center. Your rabbit can use the ramps that come with it to get in and out without help.

I don't own it any more to measure it. Our dog died. Although I can tell you that it is not the bar spaces that would be a problem foe rabbits. You need a tray that is located under a wire bottom for rabbits unless you have time to clean it daily. If not you will quickly get maggots and flies. And if they sit in their own waist, the maggots will enter the rabbits back end. I tried using a litter box in a cage for a rabbit once and that happened to my rabbit.

Yes! We actually took them out after realizing that our bunny starting becoming anti-social and hiding under them instead of interacting with us. Plus, it never hopped up there anyway. But...I do want to add that I highly recommend this cage. It's large and roomy, very easy to clean, a great deal (or it was at the time...don't know what it's priced at now.), and on WHEELS! So easy to move around.
